These are the best oven fries I have had - ever - I think. The garlic/butter step takes them over the top; I only used half of the butter and used PAM cooking spray instead of olive oil. Really delicious! Made for Went to the Market Tag

    Excellent fries! Loved the garlic butter topping and this was a nice change from regular old french fries. Thanks for posting this Nimz! Made for Zaar Cookbook Tag.

    Fantastic! I skipped the oil, and just used some cooking spray. Also, I reduced the garlic down to 2 cloves based on personal preference. I made these for lunch today, and I keep going back to the kitchen to eat 'just one more'!

    Totally delicious and very easy to make! I used slightly less oil and added about a teaspoon of lemon zest to the oil, and I sautéed five cloves of minced garlic in non-stick pan in about a tablespoon of butter. After drizzling the potatoes with the garlic and butter, I garnished them with fresh thyme leaves. We ate them with meatloaf and salad. They looked and tasted great! Thanks for sharing!
